Clove Cafe

Clove Cafe is a modern suburban brunch spot on Amy Road in Newstead, a few minutes' drive from central Launceston. It's a locals' favourite for coffee and baked treats, and dogs are welcome to join you at the outdoor tables.

Dog access. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor dining area. Indoors is for people only, as is standard for cafes. The outdoor seating is relaxed and airy, with room to settle a dog by your chair.

Water and treats. Bowls may be out, but bring your own water bowl to be safe, especially during the busy weekday breakfast rush.

Known for. Fresh in-house baking (cakes and slices), good coffee, and a reliable light lunch menu. Popular with the local crowd, so mornings can fill up.

Getting there. 1 Amy Road, Newstead. Street parking is available on Amy Road and the surrounding residential streets. Open Monday to Friday, 7:30am to 3pm, and closed on weekends, so this is a weekday stop, not a weekend brunch plan.

Nearby with the dogs. Hoblers Bridge Reserve Fenced Dog Park is a short drive away for a proper off-leash run after coffee, and Newstead River Reserve has riverside walking trails close by.

Weekday mornings are the sweet spot before the lunch crowd arrives. Good for a coffee-and-croissant stop on the way to or from the dog park.
